It will have been 16 days since we saw what football at the top end of things could look like by Arsenal, who made us look second class citizens in footballing terms.

This game is unusual this season, in so far as the bookies have us down as favourites to win.  Monday nigth, under the lights....but how empty will the bowl be.  With a boycott planned, kids for a quid, general sale tickets up for cheap, and Nuno's first home game, the atmosphere and attendance is anyone's guess.

Injuries wise, our Big Fucking German is big fucking injured again...reducing the options up front to the two Callum's.  Nuno chose to save ~86k in wages last time out, preferring the pace and mobility of Marshall over Wilson, and it will be interesting to see if he does the same thing here, or goes for a 'makeshift' centreforward.  And of course Soucek is back.

Other than that, there are no fresh concerns reported going into the weekend.

Predicted Starting Lineup:
Areola

Wan Bissaka   Mavropanos    Kilman    Diouf

Magassa

Fernandes             Soucek       Paqueta       Summerville

Bowen (c)
Subs: Hermansen, KWP, Igor, Potts, Guilherme, Marshall, Rodriguez, Wilson, Scarles

Predicted Score: 1-0 (Soucek)

A scrappy win. 2-1, Diouf and Jarrod

Nuno in goal, Potts Sr returns to the back four after a 20 year absence. 


 
Stevie Potts would do a better job than those two clowns we currently have in central defence
 
2.2 draw after leading 2.0 

Bowen & Wilson on the score sheet.

Kilman OG and red card 

Removes shirt in shame and throws it to the kids in the front row only for it to be thrown back.

When you put it like that, this really should be a must win on the calendar.

Difficult one to predict on Monday night .The heart says a scrappy 1-0 win for the Irons the head says a  bore draw. Nuno has had nearly two weeks to start sorting out the terrible mess left by our three previous Managers. Hopefully we will see the green shoots of a long awaited recovery. Considering Brentford lost during the Summer their Manager, Captain and two very good Strikers the still look capable of staying in the Premiership.

What is this "typewriter" about which you speak?

Quill & ink-pot. British tools for British people.

Nuno has had time to look at the squad, change training and select his strongest team. Combined with new tactics we stand a decent chance of taking three points, three points that will be the platform to start a slow climb out of the relegation zone and hopefully up the table.

I'm going. If I have to be the twelfth man on my own then so be it.

2-0

Almost agree with that line up except that I'd swap around Soucek & Marshall for the first 60 minutes, at least.

Give the lad the chance to stretch himself from the start without, hopefully getting carded for being over-enthusiastic.

0-0 Bore Draw and hopefully 1,500 in attendance due mainly to the Away fans turning up I reckon.
